Free Live Webinar: Trauma Bonding (Why People Bond With Their Abusers)

(Please note: This free live webinar will be recorded and a copy made available to all who register.)

Trauma bonding, as the name suggests, has to do with attaching to someone via a traumatic event and/or ongoing treatment. Often referred to as “Stockholm Syndrome,” wherein hostages bond with their captors — sometimes even assuming their captors’ views. Trauma bonding is common with abused children, who cry for their abusive parents when taken away by Children Services, victims of abuse often develop a strong sense of loyalty towards their abuser, despite the fact that the bond is damaging to them.

In life, we repeat the patterns of behavior and treatment that we were exposed to as a child. This is because, at a young age, we are malleable and therefore vulnerable to healthy/non-healthy treatment by our primary caregivers. Therefore, when we are able to recognize the patterns in choosing unhealthy people/situations that make us vulnerable to boundary violations, manipulation and abuse of all sorts, we can reclaim the healthier life that we deserve.

In this webinar we’ll learn exactly what trauma bonding is and how to break free from the cycle. Register Now!
